Professionalism personified

Professionalism personified

Iains knowledge of the market meant that his sale price projection and ultimately the offer we accepted, was within our expectations. In the current environment where demand far exceeds supply, Iain was a breath of fresh air in that he was not pushy and didn't give pie in the sky figures to attract us as clients. His level of contact could only ever be described as the perfect amount. Not too much and not too little. Contact when it was needed and always on time. Nothing was a hassle for Iain, he guided us through the stressful process with his clear experience. Iain is a true professional. It really did feel as though he was solely working for us despite knowing he would have had other clients to manage at the same time. Highly recommended.

It was a pleasure to have Iain as our real estate agent.

Iain was from day one we met with him very professional. He was able to answer all our questions, put our mind at rest and gave us great advise how to best present the house. Iain is a very good communicator and kept us well informed. We have been very happy with the service he provided and certainly can recommend him wholeheartedly.

We engaged Willie Roy to sell our property of 20 years. A rental property that required a reno

We engaged Willie Roy to sell our property of 20 years. A rental property that required a reno

After contacting Willie and 3 other agents for an appraisal, Willie’s was received by the end of the following day, Some other agents still hadn’t gotten back to us within a week. Once we decided to go with Willie he had the photographer there the next morning a Tuesday, by Wednesday night it was online on various sites. First open home that Sunday, and offers that evening. The house was sold by the following Wednesday. So sold within a week, for above expectations. Willie had personal experience of doing his own renovation, so he had great advice on how to market ours, he was prompt, replied to all our questions immediately, friendly and reliable. I can’t recommend a better Agent!

Bruce was an empathetic agent who listened as required and reflected back in an understanding manner. He knew the market well and gauged appropriate interest and helped sell our property quickly under challenging circumstances. He went above and beyond, attending council meetings with us and visiting a contractor to address an outstanding concern. We have no hesitation in recommending him for your real estate needs.

Couldn't have wanted for a better agent and advisor.

From day one Iain showed good market knowledge and was always professional in all of our dealings. Happy to answer all our questions honestly coupled with excellent communication and follow up after all property viewings. We never felt that he was pushy and always gave good advice. Would use Iain again and would happily recommend him.
